Large Quantity Generators

Large Quantity Generators (LQG) generate 1,000 kilograms per month or
more of hazardous waste, or more than 1 kilogram per month of acutely
hazardous waste. Requirements for LQGs include:

LQGs may only accumulate waste on site for 90 days. Certain exceptions apply.

LQGs do not have a limit on the amount of hazardous waste accumulated on site.

There must always be at least one employee available to respond to an emergency. This employee is the emergency
coordinator responsible for coordinating all emergency response measures. LQGs must have detailed, written contingency
plans for handling emergencies.
